Gurus,
I just thought of sharing some good news. I spoke this afternoon with USCIS office about my pending EAD(renewal), at the same time I asked the lady to check my I485 (PD: 11/08/2005), she forwarded my call to Level 2 support guys. He said FP,NC,Back ground check everything is cleared and also case is assigned to IO.
Just a small suggestion/clue to my friends,
when ever they ask "when did u file the application(I485) tell them your PD not the date that we all recently applied(if you have applied recently, I mean last year Jul/Aug)". Also don't call them on Mon-Wed, call them on Thursday or Friday (I recommend), so they will answer you guys politely. Complement for every say of them. Just a good word or humble will pay us back. I am sure about that.
Please don't take me wrong.
-Prasad.
Would you please let us know what #(extensions) did you call? Was the person who initially answered your call IO or National CS? What did you ask the person who initially answered your call upon which she forwarded you to second level support? Appreciate your answers. Thank you.

Gurus, can you please let me know your opinion on the below item? thanks a lot.
I am thinking about having our parents visit us next year. I am planning to have them here for about 185 days - more than the usual 180 days. Do you think there would be any kind of problem with getting the I-94 at the port of entry if we have the tickets booked? Did any do this?

I don't want you to freak out because my case is probably a very small fraction of the visa applications BUT since this thread is specifically related to PIMS, I thought I'd give you my example. Good news for you is, you are going to India. I was stuck in Canada not knowing long it might take for the PIMS to get updated. I ended up touring North Canada but I wish I could've traveled with a peace of mind.

Reminder: Those living in highrise apartments or large apartment complex should put up the names of their family members on the mail box such that the green card mails are not returned to the USCIS. Under the current USCIS policy, the U.S. Postal Services are not permitted to deliver the USCIS enevelope with "Return Requested" red stamp other than the specific individual named on the envelope. This is particularly true with the green card delivery.

I could find this useful. I am in my 6th year expiring June 1, 2007. My employers are just about to file LC, so I guess being able to process I140 by premium will enable me file for a three year extension before my current stay expires.

These conversations are very good. In my experience recently one of my friend went on USA on H1B visa. On the time of stamping he faced some difficult in Chennai. But another friend got visa easily in Hyderabad. I think that for H1B visa Hyderabad is easy to get stamping.

Able to read English or not should not constitute an offense. Not able to read a road sign and erring on that basis is an offense. All the regulatory and warning road signs have a symbol associated with the text (Octogon for stop 'U' for U-turn, curve ahead.....). Only the advisory signs (exit signs and street signs) have English names and no signs.

Hey,
Thanks for the response.
One quick clarification:
a) COS from H4 to H1 B status, does'nt need me to go through the quota/lottery system etc. Am I right?, because I did hear this from some folks that I would *not* have to go through the quota since I originally had a H1 B visa with validity date. ?
b) In case of my finding an opening with new employer & shifting COS back to H1 from H4, what time frame would it take?
c) further addition to point b) what kinds of documents would I need to submit to INS for COS back to H1? any idea?
Again thanks guys! Have a great day...
Shivani :)
a) Your H1 will be exempt from quota.
b) Since you were on H1 status before, you can start working immediately after getting receipt for COS from H4 to H1.
c) Same as any H1 petition. Also, since this is COS, you must be in valid H4 status when COS to H1 is filed.

hi All,
i'm new to this forum.please advice on my situation.
I was on F1 earlier and now I am on H1b from jan 2007.
I am the first person for whom company filed H1B and got approved.
I am the only person on my companies payroll and only person on their H1B. Is that going to be a probelm if i go for H1B stamping to mexico?
If i go for stamping to mexico, What sort of questions i will be asked?
Please help me ...
Thanks
I think its risky everywhere Mexico\Canada\India with a one person company. So make sure you have a valid F1 to come back or I would suggest that you wait for some more time so that you have more paystubs \ company has good annual returns so that you have all kind of documentation to show what the officers would ask you .
On a separate note I hope you know about the PIMS rule for visa stamping due to which it might take more time for visa stamping ( they say two days approx. but could be more ) . So if you do decide to go to Mexico plan to stay there appropriately due to this new visa stamping process ( has the PIMS process already begun ?? )

Hi guys, this is a good article to present to someone as proof of marketability of high skilled people across the globe and the competetion companies face in recruiting them.

INDIA TECH FIRMS SEEK US TALENT IN OFFSHORING TWIST
Author(s): Diane E. Lewis, Globe Staff Date: May 30, 2006 Page: A1 Section: Business
Five years ago, US firms were wooing India's computer science graduates with lucrative job offers and a chance to live in America. Now, it's India's turn.
Infosys Technologies Ltd., a leading Indian software provider, will spend $100 million over the next year to hire and train 25,000 workers and college graduates culled from around the world, including from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University. Tata Consultancy Services Ltd. of Bangalore will add 30,500 employees over the next year, including 1,000 from the United States. In a case of reverse offshoring, Indian tech companies are beefing up their staffs by hiring Americans and foreigners to work in India. They also are opening offices around the world and recruiting local staff. The firms are launching the global recruiting effort because of labor shortages in India. Indian companies are expanding beyond data entry and back-office processes into areas such as design, research and development, and sophisticated business applications that require highly skilled workers.
Tata hired John Dubiel, 59, of Westford in November. Dubiel spent two weeks in India, learning about the firm's products and meeting his Indian counterparts. Dubiel now works out of Tata's Boston office as an executive helping North American companies solve their business problems with technology.
"The major difference between working for this company and an American firm are the time zones," said Dubiel. "Because TCS is global, the sun never sets on us. It is not unusual to make calls at midnight or at 4 a.m."
For years, US companies have imported talent from the two Indian firms, saying there were not enough technology workers here. However, lengthy delays due to immigration issues such as caps on the number of H1-B visas for foreign professionals prompted Indian companies to develop another strategy.
"They said, `Let's train people in the United States or India and make them an extension of our offshore team in the United States,' " said Gary David, an associate professor of sociology at Bentley College. "So, Americans are now becoming the offshore component for foreign firms."
Currently, more than 10,000 American expatriates work in India for Indian information technology consulting and other outsourcing firms, a number that is expected to grow, said John McCarthy, vice president of Asia Pacific research at Forrester Research in Cambridge.
Meanwhile, American firms seeking to reduce labor costs are stepping up offshoring efforts and will be sending more white-collar jobs abroad. McCarthy estimates that US employers will move 3.4 million jobs and $136 billion in wages overseas by 2017. Those jobs will include positions in technology, finance, life sciences, human resources administration, and business management. Most will be jobs that do not require face-to-face time with clients.
Analysts from another research firm, Gartner Inc., based in Connecticut, say that outsourcing of IT jobs from the United States, Europe, and other major regions to developing countries will increase to 30 percent in 2015, up from under 5 percent today.
But as US firms seek to cut costs, Indian firms Infosys and Tata are scouring the world for highly skilled talent, and they say they will pay the prevailing wage for new hires in Japan, the United States, and England.
This summer, Infosys will train 300 graduates it recruited from American colleges. The new employees will receive starting salaries of $55,000 after completing a six-month course at the firm's training facility in Mysore, India. The recruits will then start full-time jobs in the company's offices in Texas, Arizona, Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, or California. Infosys trains recruits in India to acquaint them with the firm's culture and with their Indian colleagues.
Matt Sorge, 23, will graduate from MIT with a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering next month. Four weeks later, he'll fly to the Infosys training center in Mysore.
A native of Oklahoma, Sorge met an Infosys representative at an MIT job fair last fall and was struck by the firm's offer and the chance to work abroad.
"When Infosys started talking about being with a global team, it seemed like an exciting industry," said Sorge. "So, I figured skewing my career path a little might be more beneficial to me. They're basically giving me an education in computer science, something I would otherwise have to pay for."
Infosys, the second-largest information technology consulting firm in India with $2.15 billion in revenue and more than 52,000 employees worldwide, says there are advantages to hiring a global workforce. "We're hoping to bring a different kind of diversity to our workplace," said Bikramjit Maitra, head of human resources at Infosys. "For us, diversity is a way to encourage innovation."
Since India has become a center for computer science, firms can teach new hires in India, where there is state-of-the-art training, said Surya Kant, president of Tata Consultancy Services America.
At Tata, new hires and professionals train in their own countries and then travel to India for orientation or full-time work. Tata employs 62,000, including 9,500 Americans, who mostly work in the United States.
Michael McCabe, a spokesman for Tata Consultancy Services North America, said the quest for talent in India is driving the push to recruit skilled workers from other fields.
"We have a robust and aggressive talent acquisition plan to tackle recruiting in 34 countries around the globe, including the United States," said McCabe. "We want to grow in every geography."
